I'm trying to upgrade from Xubuntu 20.04 to 22.04. I did sudo apt clean, sudo apt update and sudo apt upgrade, and then tried to upgrade like so:
$ sudo do-release-upgrade -c
Checking for a new Ubuntu release
New release '22.04.5 LTS' available.
Run 'do-release-upgrade' to upgrade to it.

It tells me there is an upgrade available, and then doesn't seem to do anything. DNS is working, I have removed all my iptables rules that might block any traffic, and sudo apt works correctly. I have also tried the old-releases repos as suggested in the question referenced by @waltinator below, but this doesn't work:
$ sudo apt-get update
